by S.L.R Bassett
The Mad Hatter sculpture from S.L.R Bassett’s Wonderland Collection. Cast in bronze, the eccentric tea-host reclines in an oversized, button-tufted armchair whose sweeping wings and studded arms give the work a dramatic, throne-like presence. His trademark top hat, wild curls and outsized bow are modelled in rich detail, while a knowing smile plays across his face as he raises a teacup in invitation.
On his lap rests a watchful hare, its ears pricked. From the laces on his boots to the folds of his coat, every surface is carefully textured, creating beautiful contrasts of light and shadow across the dark patina of the chair and the warmer tones of the figure.
Whimsical and slightly mischievous, Mad Hatter is a statement piece that brings the fantasy of Wonderland into the real world. It is designed as a striking focal point for a garden, private collection, hotel or public space. A sculpture that delights viewers up close with its intricate detailing, and anchors a space from afar with its strong, theatrical silhouette.
